Hi, Dapper - welcome (and nice name!)
I've been on Cymbalta and Effexor and both eventually pooped out on me. I switched to Remeron this summer and at the low starting dose, it's extremely sedating. Once I got up to the therapeutic dosage (30mg for me), I woke up and felt much better.
If you're able to tolerate the sedation until you can get up to the therapeutic dosage on this medication, I'd say it's worth a try. It's very well known for sedation, as I said, at the lower doses.
It's been a great AD for me, though. No horrible side effects as I'd had on Cymbalta and Effexor.
Good luck and I hope you're feeling better.
